Tips

Climb difficulty: This category 1 climb is sustained but steady over its first three kilometers (gradients of 6-7%). The toughest section comes at KM 3.0-3.5 with a brutal 9% ramp, before an easier finish (3%) over the last 200 meters.

Pacing tips:

1. Manage your pace before the steep section: Settle into a steady rhythm over the first 3 km so you don't burn out before the 9% section.

2. Anticipate the change of tempo: Get ready mentally and physically for a harder effort around the 3 km mark, then a chance to ease off near the top.

3. Control your effort on the steepest pitch: On the 9% segment, shift to an easier gear to keep a high cadence and avoid blowing up your legs.
